There are certain people who, when their face appears on the TV screen after changing the channel, you just know will never ever tell you anything you could ever care about. It's not just that what they are saying is completely unimportant (trivial would be a gross overstatement), but they just have that look - the one that says, "I'm wasting your time."

Cornelius Vanderbilt (railroad, shipping/freight magnate) does look a lot like C. Montgomery Burns. But I think a lot of old industrialsts look alike. For example, look at J. Pierpont Morgan (J.P. Morgan Chase, Morgan Stanley Dean Witter) and John Rockefeller (Standard Oil). Rockefeller has the tight lips, sharp nose and dress of Burns. Morgan has the hair and eyes. Vanderbilt has the hair line and weak chin structure. Anyway, Burns has that very distinctive look of a 19th/early 20th century industrialist.

Okay, there's an afternoon baseball game that wants to be watched.
